I told my buddy I was looking to buy a car and he told me his dad was looking to sell his Silver 2010 Chevy HHR for 3K. He doesn’t know the miles for sure but he said he thinks it’s under 100K he is still waiting to find out the exact miles. All it needs is a battery (They will buy and install it.) I’m 16 and just need a ride from school and work. If you think I should go with something else lmk! I have 5K to put down on something but would like to just pay something off so I can save more.

    At the risk of being downvoted, I’ll be the contrarian on this one.

    The HHR was the worst car I’ve ever owned, and it wasn’t close. It was very slow, had constant problems, handled poorly, and had a 5-speed that almost made me want the automatic because of how bad it was. Even though there were a couple nice features in the interior, everything felt really cheap, and I say that being no stranger to cheap cars. The seats were also a bit uncomfortable and give you basically no support in turns. And while the styling is subjective, the visibility is absolutely awful. You’d think you’d be able to see out okay because of how many windows it has, but they’re all too small to be able to see well.

    I would really, really, really spend the extra money (if you even need to) and get something like a Corolla, or something in that vein.
